Since the launch of Bing in June 2009, its market share of search engine traffic has been steadily growing. With all of the excitement around the new engine, though, and its focus on relevancy, marketers are clamoring to ensure their websites get ranked well in the up-and-coming engine.

Bing's layout, components and algorithm vary greatly from Google. But what factors about one website make it more relevant about a topic than another website in Bing’s estimation? Join us for this seminar and learn what the most important ranking factors are for Bing and what your SEO best practices should include when optimizing for this search engine.
